Marvel
Studios has officially announced the production start of Avengers:
Infinity War via a featurette that shows Robert Downey Jr.
(Tony Stark/Iron Man), Tom Holland (Peter Parker/Spider-Man) and
Chris Pratt (Peter Quill/Star-Lord).

Watch
the featurette below:

Prior
to the release of the first featurette, Robert Downey Jr. (Tony
Stark/Iron Man) hosted a Facebook Live, to answer fan questions.
Here’s everything we learned from the live chat (and the
first Avengers: Infinity War featurette) so far:

Tom
Holland will be reprising his role as Peter Parker/Spider-Man.

Chris
Pratt‘s Peter Quill/Star-Lord will also be joining the fray.

Robert
Downey Jr. still fondly remembers the Mark 42 from “Iron Man 3”

“Avengers:
Infinity War” kicks off with tension as Captain America is still
on Iron Man’s “S-List”

Reflecting
on his appearance in the first “Iron Man” to “Avengers:
Infinity War,” Downey says “[Tony Stark] has matured a bit. What
has changed is the universe around him.”

The
three Avengers the Russo brothers would go on a family vacation
with: Tony Stark, Peter Park, and Vision.

Start
of production officially began last month in Pinewood Atlanta.

Thanos
will be “the most frightening villain the Avengers have ever
faced;” he’ll show us all why he’s “the biggest, the best,
the baddest villain that we’ve ever had.”

The
Avengers are completely unprepared to face Thanos as a result of the
events of “Captain America: Civil War” leaving the Avengers a
team name with no team members.

Thor fighting alongside Rocket Raccoon

The
Russo brothers confirm two films will be deeply connected – “these
next two Avengers films will be an event like no one has ever seen
on film before”

Downey
drives that point home as we’ve come to learn the next two
Avengers will be filmed back-to-back for a “year of fun-filled
lensing”

Avengers:
Infinity War will hit US theaters May 4, 2018, with the
second part following on May 3, 2019.

Continuing
a cinematic universe that launched in 2008 with Iron Man,
Infinity War promises an epic story that will bring in
characters from a decade of films. The cast includes Robert Downey
Jr., Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Elizabeth Olsen, Sebastian Stan,
Scarlett Johansson, Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Benedict Cumberbatch,
Pom Klementieff, Tom Holland, Peter Dinklage and Josh Brolin as
Thanos. Directors Anthony and Joe Russo, who return after Captain
America: Civil War, are directing both Avengers:
Infinity War and the untitled second half, which will close
Marvel Phase 3.
